which?

What could i buy, that i wouldnt mind getting a bit dusty etc, but yet is nice to look at, nice to drive and isnt a RS ETC.

Celica? 3 series beemer? Your ideas?

 

1992 1 litre mini mayfair....

 

couple of my friends been having 3 series BMWs only the baby e36 shape 318is's but they do seem decent motors - be nicer with the bigger engines in.

what kinda price you thinking?

 

not sure melv, maybe 9-12k

Katie, i couldnt get my clubs in a mini or my tools

 

oops
only I couldn't see above that you were stating required dimensions for the car....

''What could i buy, that i wouldnt mind getting a bit dusty etc, but yet is nice to look at, nice to drive and isnt a RS ETC. ''

If you want to add further criteria

I jest, I jest

 

2001 model 5 series - can pick a 525i se up for dirt cheep money now with full bmw history, they are good too for the size of car, economical, and very very comfortable to drive with all the toys


its what i'm getting for a runabout

 

But KAT, it said in the Title...PRACTICAL

 

Lee was in the same situation in febuary,bought an m3 evo love every minute of it,being dakar yellow it still turns heads,but still have the 3dr in the garage

cheeRS stu

 

corado

 

M3, but the fuel bill ain't practical

 

I think gotta be a BMW to fit all of the categories pretty anoymous motoring though. which maybe what you want?

 

A mini mayfair is practical, easy to park, cheap tax, economical

and who the hell is Kat...lol

 

ive got an e36 318, good motor but obviously a bit more power wouldnt go amiss!

golf

Audi
S3
S4

 

well i been saying Beemer for about 3 yrs now. Would probs be a 330ci i reckon! Thats is the number one i must admit, but owndered what i lot thought!
Except Kat of course, the bint

 

S8

 

Stretch the money and go for an R33 Skyline?

 

 

Audi

 

Me mate has a 99 328i. Lovely sweet motor,all the toys,paid Ł8.5k.
There's always a Boxster!

 

Audis are lovely cars, mates got a S3 and friend is buying a quattro sport A3 that I went to look at at the weekend, but they are slow in comparisson

 

Nothing AMD can't sort out. The bottom end is supposed to be good for 400bhp out the box

 

Apart from the fact i think they are one of the ugliest cars on the road, its not that practical really.

I could stretch the money and go for a new shape M3. 22-25k...but thats not practical...using a car like that to go on site Dya get me Rich?

 

what about a type-r? nice cars, rev happy, and pretty quick. only problem is everyone seems to have one now.

 

Audi Audi Audi!!

S8.

yeah not thought of that! Will look

 

Audi then mate.

Or maybe a 330D BMW? Very well specced cars

 

My M3 is literally a company car. Use it for council bidding effectively and get an allowance. Hasn't failed me once and done 18k in it. Heavy fuel, but mega fun/reliability

 

I've just bought a 2001 Audi S4 mate, its a fantastic car. Goes well, stops well, four doors,big boot,decent fuel etc etc. Plus, unless you know what it is then its just another audi.

 

yes been looking at the 330 D Rich! Cant get my head round having a diesel car tho lol will have a look tho!

S4 arch is another i been looking at

 

Lee,
Forgot to mention they are also fairly "cheap" to insure. Roughly half price compared to me esc cos.

 

330d is awesome, can be made to go faster than current M3 Audi S4 is disappointing in comparisson. Over hyped IMO

 

i reckon type-r or a skoda RS thingy or even a golf MK4/5 GTI. i would personally stick to a hot hatch unless you want RWD, as there are a lot of good cars out there at the monent.

 

Type R maybe, Golf/Skoda

 

nowt wrong wi golfs James

 

the new skoda RS thingy has a audi tt lump in it, so its pretty rapid!

 

ST200

 

Audi A4 TDi,very practical,no slouch and they look the bollocks,all in my opinion of course

jon

forgot to say,its got to be an estate

 

DC5 Integra Type R - probably the best all round car ive had!
